Weird campaign aimed @ young girls & EDs ???
funnily enough the brand deleted it within 20 mins, but how odd - especially as it leans into misogny too. holy, just ticking off boxes to hate women

What the heck is going on with the weird 10-second bumpers with creepy music, no words or dialogue, and women posing alone in empty rooms? I find these more terrifying than any trailer for a horror movie. And yet I cannot find them on your YouTube channel or iSpot. What ARE these videos????

Home Depot has a commercial with Nick Saban touting 2 hour delivery. He’s making a sandwich and gets his drill delivery. All innocuous.
Once he gets his drill armed… he says, with big smile:
“Let’s roll”.
Those were the last words of Todd Beamer, as he and other passengers on United Flight 93 stopped the hijackers on 9/11.
Perhaps it’s me but those words used in a commercial close to the 25th anniversary of that horrid event seem to be cynical and exploitative.
Many people may not remember that yet someone in Home Depot might have
We are not big on remembering history in the US

It’s probly over 50% of my ads are carpe and Nero gum. I hate these ads to fucking much because they are always yelling at you. Like shut the fuck up

I found an old advertising idea in my notebook and decided to bring it back to life with AI.
The idea: Leonardo is struggling to make Mona Lisa smile. He tries everything — money, ice cream, gifts, flowers, even a teddy bear.
Nothing works.
Then a burger seller passes by.
Mona Lisa smells the burgers… and suddenly smiles.
Leonardo finally understands:
A BURGER. 🍔
What started as a simple joke became a creative experiment about problem-solving:
Sometimes we overcomplicate problems when the solution is surprisingly simple.
Old idea. New tools. Same creative instinct.
This is a speculative personal concept, not commissioned by or affiliated with McDonald’s.
I’d love to hear your thoughts on the concept itself.

I got this as a game advert in another game I was playing. Anyone else run across this?

Could they not afford better audio quality

I don't have a problem with the actual commercials but Google needs to find more advertisers. I was watching something last night and no lie, they played EIGHT Walmart+ commercials back to back in one 2 minute break!
Where I live (New Mexico) we also get ads in Spanish, which is ok but I have no idea whether they are good or bad because I don't speak Spanish. One thing that I don't like however is we're getting a lot of political ads right now, mostly from the opposition, and they are bad - they are 100% lying about our democrat senator (the (republican paid for) ad claims he voted for chemical castration for minors undergoing gender reassignment ..... he did not).
When they don't do that, they usually switch to a shot of a tropical beach with the surf washing up onto it - which I enjoy way more than any ad!

You'd think they'd have this go through an editor or something, but apparently not
